CTR Weekly MA + 1D MA (improved)This does what the previous version does but more. I've added color candles to match the three weekly MAs. It helps show the stronger pullback as it goes deeper into each of the 3 weekly MAs and once the pullback is over and price goes back above or below the lowest or highest MA (depending on whether you are trading in a bear market or bull market) the candle colors will turn bright green or bright red.

CTR Weekly MA TradingI built this simple pine script to help me trade on the lower timeframe (1d) while still showing my key weekly moving averages to help me trade with the macro trend.
Rules for trading...
Steps for taking a Short position:
1. Wait for all 3 weekly moving averages to be in alignment (8EMA<21SMA<50SMA). When these aligned the candles will change to bright red, meaning bearish.
2. Wait for a pullback to the 1 Day 21SMA. When a candle touches the 21SMA, that candle will change color to white. This will be your alert to get ready to enter into a short.
3. On the next candle you can then take a short position as long as that candle is below the 21SMA, if not, wait for the net daily candle to close. If that is below the 21SMA you can then enter into a short on the opening of the next daily candle.
I built this to trade the Bear Market but this same method can also work in a Bull Market but just do the opposite.
SMC: Multi-TF Bias & HTF BOS with SessionsOverview
The HTF BOS (Session) - Precision Lines is a comprehensive trading tool designed for Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and price action traders. It identifies Higher Timeframe (HTF) Break of Structure (BOS) levels while filtering them based on specific trading sessions. Additionally, it features a built-in Bias Dashboard that tracks trend alignment across three different timeframes to help you stay on the right side of the market.
Key Features
1. Precision HTF BOS Tracking
Unlike standard indicators that only mark the breakout candle, this script uses high-precision pivot detection to identify the exact origin of a structural high or low.
Tam Yapışık Çizgiler (Precise Lines): The BOS lines are drawn exactly from the pivot point to the breakout point, providing a clean and professional look on your chart.
HTF Integration: You can track structure from a higher timeframe (e.g., 4H) while trading on a lower timeframe (e.g., 15m or 5m).
2. Session Filtering (Time Sensitivity)
Structural breaks are most reliable when they happen during high-volume periods.
The script includes a Session Filter (London & New York).
If enabled, the indicator will only plot BOS levels that occur during your specified trading hours, helping you avoid "fake-outs" or noise during low-liquidity periods (Asian session/After-hours).
3. Multi-Timeframe Bias Dashboard
Stay aware of the "Big Picture" without constantly switching charts. The dashboard monitors three custom timeframes (e.g., Daily, 4H, 1H) and determines if the structure is Bullish or Bearish.
Strong Buy/Sell Signals: When all three timeframes align, the status cell highlights as "BUY" or "SELL."
Wait Status: If timeframes are in conflict, the dashboard suggests "WAIT," encouraging disciplined trading.
How to Use
Define Your Bias: Set your three Bias Timeframes in the settings to match your higher-level strategy.
Set Your BOS TF: Choose the timeframe you want structural breaks to be calculated from (usually one or two steps above your entry chart).
Adjust Sensitivity: Use the "Pivot Sensitivity" setting to filter between minor and major structural points.
Confirm with Session: Enable the session filter to ensure you are only trading breaks that occur during the NY or London sessions.
Settings
Bias Dashboard Settings: Customize the TFs and pivot sensitivity for trend analysis.
BOS & Session Settings: Set your target HTF for drawings and define your trading window (NY Timezone supported).
Visual Settings: Full control over colors (Bullish/Bearish), table positioning, and text sizes.
Volume Weighted Intra Bar LR CorrelationThis indicator analyzes market character by providing a detailed
view of correlation. It applies a Linear Regression model to
intra-bar price action, dissecting the total correlation of
each bar into three distinct components.
Key Features:
1. **Three-Component Correlation Decomposition:** The indicator
separates correlation based on the 'Estimate Bar Statistics' option.
- **Standard Mode (`Estimate Bar Statistics` = OFF):** Calculates
correlation based on the selected `Source` (this results
mainly in 'Trend' and 'Residual' correlation).
- **Decomposition Mode (`Estimate Bar Statistics` = ON):** The
indicator uses a statistical model ('Estimator') to
calculate *within-bar* correlation.
(Assumption: In this mode, the `Source` input is
**ignored**, and an estimated mean for each bar is used
instead).
This separates correlation into:
- **Trend Correlation (Green/Red):** Correlation explained by the
regression's slope (Directional Alignment).
- **Residual Correlation (Yellow):** Correlation from price
oscillating around the regression line (Mean-Reversion/Cointegration).
- **Within-Bar Correlation (Blue):** Correlation from the
high-low range of each bar (Microstructure/Noise).
2. **Visual Decomposition Logic:** Total Correlation is the
primary metric displayed. Since Correlation Coefficients are not
linearly additive, this indicator plots the *exact* Total
Correlation and partitions the area underneath based on the
Covariance Ratio. This ensures the displayed total correlation
remains mathematically accurate while showing relative composition.
3. **Dual Display Modes:** The indicator offers two modes to
visualize this decomposition:
- **Absolute Mode:** Displays the *total* correlation as a
stacked area chart, partitioned by the ratio of
the three components.
- **Relative Mode:** Displays the direct *energy ratio*
(proportion) of each component relative to the total (0-1),
ideal for identifying the dominant market character.
4. **Calculation Options:**
- **Normalization:** An optional 'Normalize' setting
calculates an **Exponential Regression Curve** (log-space),
making the analysis suitable for growth assets.
- **Volume Weighting:** An option (`Volume weighted`) applies
volume weighting to all regression and correlation calculations.
5. **Correlation Cycle Analysis:**
- **Pivot Detection:** Includes a built-in pivot detector
that identifies significant turning points (highs and lows) in
the *total* correlation line. (Note: This is only visible
in 'Absolute Mode').
- **Flexible Pivot Algorithms:** Supports various underlying
mathematical models for pivot detection provided by the
core library.
6. **Note on Confirmation (Lag):** Pivot signals are confirmed
using a lookback method. A pivot is only plotted *after*
the `Pivot Right Bars` input has passed, which introduces
an inherent lag.
7. **Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Capability:**
- **MTF Correlation Lines:** The correlation lines can be
calculated on a higher timeframe, with standard options
to handle gaps (`Fill Gaps`) and prevent repainting
(`Wait for...`).
- **Limitation:** The Pivot detection (`Calculate Pivots`) is
**disabled** if a Higher Timeframe (HTF) is selected.
8. **Integrated Alerts:** Includes comprehensive alerts for:
- Correlation magnitude (High Positive / High Inverse).
- Correlation character changes/emerging/fading.
- Total Correlation pivot (High/Low) detection.
**Caution! Real-Time Data Behavior (Intra-Bar Repainting)**
This indicator uses high-resolution intra-bar data. As a result, the
values on the **current, unclosed bar** (the real-time bar) will
update dynamically as new intra-bar data arrives. This behavior is
normal and necessary for this type of analysis. Signals should only
be considered final **after the main chart bar has closed.**

Weekend Highs & Lows (BTC)Weekend highs and lows are generally taken, this indicator will help get stats for that
Volume Weighted LR SkewnessThis indicator analyzes market character by decomposing total
skewness (asymmetry) into four distinct, interpretable components
based on a Linear Regression model.
Key Features:
1. **Four-Component Skewness Decomposition:** The indicator
separates market asymmetry based on the 'Estimate Bar Statistics' option.
It leverages the Law of Total Moments to provide an additive
breakdown of the 3rd Statistical Moment:
- **Trend Skewness (Green/Red):** Asymmetry originating from
the slope of the regression line itself. Indicates if the
trend path is geometrically skewed.
- **Residual Skewness (Yellow):** Asymmetry of the noise
around the regression line. Captures "Tail Risk" (e.g.,
sudden spikes against the trend).
- **Within-Bar Skewness (Blue):** Asymmetry derived from the
microstructure of individual bars (requires 'Estimate Bar Statistics').
- **Interaction Skewness (Dark Grey):** Asymmetry caused by the
correlation between price levels and volatility (e.g.,
volatility expanding as price moves in one direction).
*Dominance of this component indicates an unstable, emotional market.*
2. **Visual Decomposition Logic:** Total Skewness is the
primary metric displayed. Since statistical moments are additive,
this indicator calculates the *exact* Total Skewness and partitions
the area to visualize the contribution (weight) of each
structural source to the overall market bias.
3. **Dual Display Modes:** The indicator offers two modes to
visualize this decomposition:
- **Absolute Mode:** Displays the *total* skewness as a
stacked area chart, allowing to see the magnitude of tail risk.
Stacking logic groups components with the same sign to ensure
visual clarity.
- **Relative Mode:** Displays the direct *contribution ratio*
(proportion) of each component relative to the total sum,
ideal for identifying the dominant driver of asymmetry.
4. **Calculation Options:**
- **Normalization:** An optional 'Normalize' setting
transforms inputs into logarithmic space, analyzing the
skewness of *returns* rather than absolute prices.
- **Volume Weighting:** An option (`Volume weighted`) applies
volume weighting to all regression and moment calculations,
emphasizing high-participation moves.
5. **Skewness Cycle Analysis:**
- **Pivot Detection:** Includes a built-in pivot detector
that identifies significant turning points (peaks/valleys) in
the *total* skewness line. This helps identify extremes in
market sentiment or structural bias.
- **Flexible Pivot Algorithms:** Supports various underlying
mathematical models for pivot detection provided by the
core library.
6. **Note on Confirmation (Lag):** Pivot signals are confirmed
using a lookback method. A pivot is only plotted *after*
the `Pivot Right Bars` input has passed, which introduces
an inherent lag.
7. **Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Capability:**
- **MTF Skewness Lines:** The skewness lines can be
calculated on a higher timeframe, with standard options
to handle gaps (`Fill Gaps`) and prevent repainting
(`Wait for...`).
- **Limitation:** The Pivot detection (`Calculate Pivots`) is
**disabled** if a Higher Timeframe (HTF) is selected.
8. **Integrated Alerts:** Includes comprehensive alerts for:
- Skewness magnitude (High Positive / High Negative).
- Skewness character changes/emerging/fading.
- Total Skewness pivot (High/Low) detection.

Kaste HARSH [Pure]How it works:
Trend component: Measures the percentage distance between fast (12) and slow (26) EMAs
Momentum component: RSI centered at 50 (range -50 to +50)
Result: A smoothed line oscillating around zero—positive values indicate bullish momentum, negative values bearish
Reading the indicator:
Above zero: Uptrend dominance; line above orange signal = strong momentum
Below zero: Downtrend dominance; line below signal = weakening momentum
±20 dotted lines: Overbought/oversold thresholds (adjustable via background colors)
Best used for: Confirming trend direction and spotting momentum divergences without chart clutter. Pure price action alignment—no buy/sell arrows, just raw trend energy.
ES to SPX Lead (RTH Adaptive)Very simple script designed especially to trade CFD but also scalping.
Only RTH (you'll understand why)
Not a stand-alone indicator, e.g., an external event may hit the index and /ES leading nature will become meaningless. Same with a sudden crash on a Mag7 stock.
Uses Z Score to evaluate if /Es is leading SPX (or not) and /ES VWAP to establish bullish (+1) or bearish territory (-1). Histogram is the product of Z Score times VWAP status, red or green depending.
Z score goes from -2 to +2.
Zscore reading: 0.4 < |Z| < 1.2 is the trading zone.
|Z| <0.4 is sort of neutral shifting gears zone, a no-trade and may be transition moment.
Middle numbers show max. limits based on actual volatility (i.e. when to exit and when definitely not to enter a trade).
Grey stripes is NO TRADE zone.
Final number is the composite histogram value.
So:
Textbook bullish: /ES above VWAP and Z Score positive
Textbook negative: /ES below VWAP and Z score negative
If Green Histogram & negative Z Score, you may enter bearish pullback trades making sure Z score is in the sweet spot bracket.
If Red histogram & negative Z score, it's a conflict state, signals are not alined. Holds a bullish nature but it may be a warning sign.
Script produced by Chat GPT after several iterations.
THAI TRENDINGVolume is the total amount of assets traded in a specific period of time. The 24-hour Volume indicator is used to measure the total volume of a symbol traded in the last 24 hours, expressed as in currency. It can be used to measure the market's interest in a particular symbol.
KASTE Buy & SellThis indicator works like a **MACD-based momentum tool**.
It calculates the difference between a fast and a slow moving average (MACD line) and smooths it with a signal line.
* A **Buy signal** appears when the MACD line crosses **above** the signal line, indicating rising bullish momentum.
* A **Sell signal** appears when the MACD line crosses **below** the signal line, indicating increasing bearish momentum.
The histogram visualizes momentum strength: green bars show bullish momentum and red bars show bearish momentum.
KASTE indicator 2 (for 10s Entries)This script is a **1-minute MACD-based trend filter** designed to define clear **bullish or bearish market bias**.
It uses a fast MACD configuration combined with a 50-period EMA to identify short-term trend direction and momentum strength.
A bullish state is shown when price is above the EMA and MACD momentum is rising above zero, while a bearish state is shown when price is below the EMA and momentum is falling below zero.
The background color highlights the current trend, making it easy to align **10-second entry timing** with the higher-timeframe bias and avoid trading in choppy conditions.
LSMA25 Trend Correction Continuation
## LSMA25 Trend Correction Continuation - Publishing Description
### Overview
This indicator highlights **trend continuation opportunities** using a **25-period LSMA (Least Squares Moving Average)** with a **slope/angle filter** and a simple **correction + re-entry** logic.
It is designed to mark:
* **Continuation entries** after a pullback (correction) and re-cross of LSMA in the direction of a strong trend
* **Strong-trend state** (subtle dots) when price stays on the trend side of LSMA with a steep angle, even without a fresh cross
### Core logic
1. **LSMA (25 by default)**
* Uses `ta.linreg(close, lsmaLen, 0)` as the LSMA line.
2. **Trend strength via angle (tick-normalized)**
* Computes 1-bar LSMA slope in **ticks**:
* `slopeTicks = (lsma - lsma ) / syminfo.mintick`
* Converts slope to an angle using `atan()` and a calibration input:
* `ticksPerBarFor45` approximates how many ticks per bar corresponds to ~45°
* Strong trend conditions:
* LONG trend strength when `angleDeg >= minAngleLongDeg`
* SHORT trend strength when `angleDeg <= minAngleShortDeg`
3. **Correction detection**
* LONG side: a correction exists if within the last `corrLookback` bars the close was **below** LSMA:
* `ta.barssince(close < lsma) <= corrLookback`
* SHORT side: correction exists if within the last `corrLookback` bars the close was **above** LSMA:
* `ta.barssince(close > lsma) <= corrLookback`
4. **Continuation signals**
* **Long Continuation (LC)** triggers when:
* Price **crosses above** LSMA (`ta.crossover(close, lsma)`)
* Angle indicates **strong uptrend**
* A recent **pullback below LSMA** occurred
* Optional ATR% filter passes
* **Short Continuation (SC)** triggers symmetrically on cross below.
5. **Strong trend markers**
* When price is on the trend side of LSMA and angle is strong:
* Uptrend: `close > lsma and strongUp`
* Downtrend: `close < lsma and strongDown`
* Drawn as small, semi-transparent circles (not entry signals by themselves).
### Plots and labels
* **LSMA line** plotted in yellow.
* **LC**: green triangle below bar (trend continuation long).
* **SC**: red triangle above bar (trend continuation short).
* **Dots**: tiny circles for strong-trend state when no fresh continuation signal is present.
### Inputs (how to tune)
* **LSMA length**
* Higher = smoother, fewer signals
* Lower = more responsive, more signals/noise
* **Ticks per bar ≈ 45°**
* Calibration control for angle scaling across different instruments/timeframes
* Increase it if angles look too “aggressive”; decrease it if angles look too “flat”
* **Min angle for LONG / Max angle for SHORT**
* Tighten to filter for only steep trends; loosen to allow more setups
* **Max correction bars back**
* Larger values allow older pullbacks to qualify
* Smaller values require a more recent correction
### Optional volatility filter (ATR%)
* When enabled, the script requires:
* `ATR% = (ATR / close) * 100 >= minAtrPct`
* Useful to avoid low-volatility chop (but can filter out valid trends on slow markets).
### How to use (practical)
* Use **LC/SC** as “trend continuation after pullback” markers:
* Prefer trading in the direction of higher timeframe bias (if applicable)
* Consider entries on LC/SC with your own risk rules (stops/targets are not included)
* Use the **strong-trend dots** as a regime filter:
* If dots persist, continuation setups have higher context quality
* If dots disappear frequently, market may be ranging/choppy
### Limitations (important)
* Angle is based on **LSMA 1-bar slope**, so it is sensitive to sudden changes and can vary across markets/timeframes.
* Correction logic is binary: it only checks whether price crossed to the other side of LSMA recently (not depth/structure of pullback).
* Signals depend on **close crossing LSMA**, not intrabar wick behavior.
* Not a full trading system: no position sizing, stops, or take profits.
### Alerts
Alerts fire only on **confirmed bars** (`barstate.isconfirmed`) for:
* “LSMA25 Long continuation”
* “LSMA25 Short continuation”
NQ Volume ProfileThis indicator displays a session-based Volume Profile directly on the chart, designed for traders who focus on market structure, auction theory, and intraday price acceptance. It visualizes how volume is distributed across price levels during the regular trading session and dynamically updates in real time.
Key features include:
Point of Control (POC) – the price level with the highest traded volume
Value Area High (VAH) & Value Area Low (VAL) calculated using a configurable value area percentage
Horizontal volume profile bars scaled relative to session volume
Intraday session reset for consistent daily structure analysis
Optional price labels and reference levels for clarity
The indicator is built to support volume profile trading, futures trading, index analysis, and intraday scalping workflows, particularly for traders analyzing liquidity, balance vs imbalance, and high-volume nodes. It adapts automatically to the session’s price range and volatility conditions.

DF Advanced Sector & RS AnalysisDF Advanced Sector & RS Analysis
Overview
This indicator is an all-in-one dashboard designed to give you an instant "health check" on any asset. Instead of opening multiple charts to check the market trend, sector performance, and fundamentals, this tool brings all that data into a single table on your screen.
It automatically detects if you are looking at a Stock, Crypto, or Forex pair and adjusts its benchmarks accordingly.
Key Features
1. Smart Asset Detection
Stocks: Compares performance against the S&P 500 (SPY).
Crypto: Compares performance against Bitcoin (BTC).
Forex: Compares performance against the US Dollar Index (DXY).
2. Sector Intelligence (Stocks Only)
If you are trading a stock, the indicator automatically identifies its sector (e.g., Technology, Energy, Finance) and compares the stock against that specific sector ETF.
Sector Trend: Tells you if the sector is in an Uptrend or Downtrend.
vs Sector: Shows if your stock is outperforming its own industry.
3. Relative Strength (RS) & Alpha
RS Rating (0-100): A score derived from RSI logic that measures how strong the asset is compared to the benchmark. A score above 70 is bullish.
Alpha: Shows how much the asset is beating (or lagging) the market over the last 20 days.
4. Fundamental Snapshot
Growth: Displays EPS (Earnings) and Revenue growth. You can toggle these between TTM (Trailing 12 Months) for a smoother view or Quarterly for recent performance.
Valuation: Displays the P/E Ratio (TTM). This is always calculated using Trailing Twelve Month data to provide a standard valuation metric.
5. The "Verdict" Score
The indicator combines Technicals, Fundamentals, and Sector Strength into a final 0-100 Score:
STRONG (Green): High probability setup (Score > 70).
NEUTRAL (Grey): Mixed signals (Score 50-70).
RISK (Red): Weak performance or fundamentals (Score < 50).
How to Use
Add to Chart: The table will appear in the corner of your screen.
Check the Score: Look for assets with a "STRONG" verdict.

ATR DEEPATR Bottom Indicator:
ATR Bottom is a dynamic support level based on market volatility (ATR) and a long-term moving average. It helps identify a price zone where downside risk significantly increases.
Unlike static levels, this indicator adapts to current market volatility and adjusts as market conditions change.
How it works:
Calculated using a moving average and ATR
The level represents the difference between average price and volatility
Always plotted below price and updates dynamically
Not a standalone entry signal
Interpretation:
Price above the line — market remains stable
Price touching the line — potential reaction or slowdown zone
Close below the line — sign of scenario shift and increased bearish pressure
Important:
Does not predict exact market bottoms
Designed for scenario-based analysis
Best used in combination with other analytical tools

Power200EMA - MTF 200 EMA SuiteThe MTF 200 EMA Suite is a trend-confluence tool designed to reveal institutional support and resistance levels across multiple timeframes simultaneously. By plotting the 200-period Exponential Moving Average from six different time horizons onto a single chart, it allows you to identify "Power Zones" where various market cycles overlap.
Core Functionality
Multi-Timeframe Visibility: On a single lower-timeframe chart (like the 1m or 5m), you can see exactly where the 200 EMA sits on the 1m, 3m, 5m, 15m, 1h, and 4h horizons.
Institutional Benchmarking: The 200 EMA is the primary "line in the sand" used by institutional algorithms and bank traders to determine long-term trend bias.
Dynamic Clustering: When multiple EMA lines converge or "cluster" in one price area, it identifies a high-probability zone of institutional interest.
Floating Labels: Each line features an auto-updating label at the current price bar, allowing you to instantly identify which timeframe you are looking at without hovering over the plots.
Strategic Use
Trend Filter: Trade only in the direction where price is relative to the majority of the EMAs (e.g., only buy when price is above the 1h and 4h lines).
Mean Reversion: Use the higher-timeframe lines (1h/4h) as targets for price to return to during volatile over-extensions.
Support/Resistance: Use EMA clusters as "hard" barriers to place stops behind or to look for bounce-entry confluence.
Bands and Channels Laboratory [DAFE]Bands and Channels Laboratory : The Ultimate Volatility & Envelope Engine
40+ Unique Algorithms. The Revolutionary MTF Horizon Display. Smart Kill Zones & Pattern Recognition. This is not just a band indicator; it is the definitive toolkit for mastering market volatility.
█ PHILOSOPHY: BEYOND THE BAND, INTO THE LABORATORY
Standard band indicators like Bollinger Bands or Keltner Channels are built on a simple, powerful idea: price tends to revert to a mean, and its deviation from that mean is a measure of volatility. However, their core calculations are primitive. A simple moving average for the basis and a simple standard deviation for the width are blunt instruments in a market that demands surgical precision and adaptability.
The Bands and Channels Laboratory was not created to be another band indicator. It was engineered to be the final word on volatility and envelope analysis. This is not just an indicator; it is a powerful, interactive research environment. It is a laboratory where you, the trader, can move beyond the static "one-size-fits-all" approach and forge a volatility system that is perfectly synchronized with the unique physics of your market.
We have deconstructed the very concept of a "band," separating it into its three core components— The Basis (Center Line) , The Deviation (Width) , and The Band Type (Envelope Logic) —and rebuilt each one with a library of dozens of advanced algorithms. This modular approach provides an almost infinite number of unique combinations, allowing you to construct a tool that is truly your own.
█ WHAT MAKES THIS THE "ULTIMATE" LABORATORY? THE CORE INNOVATIONS
This tool stands in a class of its own, offering a suite of proprietary features that collectively create an unparalleled analytical experience.
The 40+ Algorithm Core (Modular Engine): This is the heart of the Laboratory. You have independent control over the mathematical engine for each part of the band:
22 Basis Algorithms: Choose anything from a classic SMA to a zero-lag Hull MA, an adaptive KAMA, or a proprietary DAFE engine for your center line.
16 Deviation Algorithms: Move beyond simple standard deviation. Use statistically robust measures like Parkinson Volatility, advanced concepts like the Ulcer Index, or proprietary DAFE engines like "DAFE Dark Matter" to calculate your band width.
14 Band Types: Select the fundamental logic, from Bollinger and Keltner to unique DAFE models like "DAFE Quantum Bands."
The MTF Horizon Display: A revolutionary leap in data visualization. The Horizon projects up to three "holographic" displays of higher-timeframe band metrics (like Bandwidth % or Squeeze State) directly onto your main price chart. You can now see the "Macro Volatility" of the 1-Hour, 4-Hour, and Daily charts without ever leaving your 5-minute screen.
The Smart Kill Zone Engine: The indicator automatically identifies, plots, and tracks high-probability reversal zones. These are not based on simple price pivots. They are generated by identifying price levels where price interacted with the bands on high volume and with significant momentum, marking a true, institutionally defended level.
The Pattern Recognition Engine: The Laboratory isn't just reactive; it's proactive. It automatically detects and labels critical band patterns, including multiple types of Squeezes (Coiling, Compression), strong Walking Bands trends, and subtle Band Divergences that often precede major reversals.
The Visualization Core: Data should be intuitive and beautiful. Choose from 11 distinct, animated, and theme-aware rendering modes . From the glowing "Quantum Field" and flowing "Plasma Storm" to the abstract "Neural Network," you can transform the simple band into interactive data art.
█ A GUIDED TOUR OF THE ALGORITHMIC CORE
This is your library of mathematical DNA. Understanding your tools is the first step to mastery.
THE ENGINE FAMILIES
The Basis Algorithms (Center Line): You have over 22 choices. Replace the lagging SMA with a Hull MA for zero lag, a KAMA for adaptivity, or the DAFE Tensor Cloud for a 4D average of OHLC data. Your center line is now as intelligent as you want it to be.
The Deviation Algorithms (Band Width): You have over 16 choices. Go beyond simple standard deviation. Use advanced statistical measures like Garman-Klass or Yang-Zhang for a more efficient estimate of volatility. Or, deploy proprietary DAFE engines like DAFE Entropy , which widens the bands in chaotic markets, or DAFE Elastic , which resists extreme expansion.
The Band Types: Choose from 14 fundamental logics, including classics like Bollinger Bands, Keltner Channels , and Donchian Channels , as well as proprietary DAFE models like the DAFE Quantum Bands , which use a noise-canceling step function for their width.
█ ACTIONABLE INTELLIGENCE: THE SIGNAL & PATTERN ENGINES
The Laboratory transforms bands from a simple contextual tool into a complete trading framework.
The Signal Engine: You are not limited to one strategy. Choose from eight distinct signal modes, from classic Mean Reversion on a band touch to aggressive Squeeze Breakouts or robust Trend Following signals. The "Smart Composite" mode uses a multi-factor scoring system to identify only the highest quality setups.
The Pattern Engine: This is your early warning system.
Squeeze Classification: It doesn't just tell you there's a squeeze; it classifies its type ("Coiling," "Compression"), giving you insight into the potential energy being stored.
Walking the Bands: It automatically detects when price is "walking" or "riding" the upper or lower band—the signature of an extremely powerful trend.
Band Divergence: It alerts you to subtle but powerful divergences between the trend of the price and the trend of the bandwidth, often signaling trend exhaustion before it's visible in price action.
█ THE MASTER DASHBOARD: YOUR "AT-A-GLANCE" COMMAND CENTER
The professional-grade dashboard provides a comprehensive, real-time summary of the entire volatility system's state.
Position & State: Instantly see the price's position relative to the bands (%B), the current Bandwidth percentage, and the overall Volatility Regime (HIGH, LOW, NORMAL).
Pattern Readout: Get a real-time display of the currently detected band pattern (e.g., "SQUEEZE: COILING," "WALKING UPPER").
Signal Status: Confirms the most recent signal generated by your chosen signal mode and displays its calculated "Strength."
Optimizer Data: When enabled, shows the backtest results of your current settings, including Win Rate, Profit Factor, and a proprietary Robustness Score.
█ DEVELOPMENT PHILOSOPHY
Bands Laboratory Ultra was born from a fascination with the physics of the market: the constant ebb and flow between equilibrium and chaos, compression and expansion. We believe that volatility is not just a risk metric; it is the very energy that drives all market movement. This tool was designed for the serious trader who seeks to understand and harness that energy. It is for the analyst who wants to deconstruct, test, and build a volatility tool that is a perfect extension of their own mind.
This Laboratory is designed to help you be wrong less often by providing a crystal-clear, multi-dimensional view of market volatility, allowing you to filter out low-probability trades and act with precision when the odds are stacked in your favor.
█ DISCLAIMER AND BEST PRACTICES
THIS IS AN ADVANCED ANALYTICAL TOOL: This indicator provides a sophisticated volatility and signal framework. It must be integrated into a complete trading plan that includes your own analysis and risk management.
TEST, DON'T GUESS: The power of this tool is its adaptability. Use the built-in Optimizer Engine to rigorously test different algorithm combinations and settings on your chosen asset and timeframe.
START WITH A ROBUST BASE: A classic "Bollinger Bands" type with a "Hull MA" basis and "Standard Deviation" is an excellent, low-lag starting point. From there, begin experimenting with more advanced deviation methods or basis algorithms.
USE CONFLUENCE: The highest probability signals come from confluence. A "Squeeze Breakout" buy signal that is confirmed by high volume, a bullish ADX, and alignment with the MTF Horizon is an A++ setup.
"In the business of trading, the winner is not the person who is never wrong, but the person who is wrong the least."

How to Use This Indicator
Getting Started
Add to Chart: Apply indicator to your preferred timeframe (works best on 1m, 5m, 15m, 60m, Daily)
Review HTF Candles: Check the HTF candles displayed on the right side with quarter/session labels
Monitor CRT Levels: Watch the dotted High/EQ/Low lines from previous closed HTF candle
Wait for C2 Setup: Look for C2 labels appearing after HTF sweep + CISD confirmation
Trading the C2 Setup
For Long Positions (C2 Buy):
Wait for HTF candle to sweep previous HTF low (price goes below previous HTF low)
HTF candle closes back above the swept low (rejection)
CISD confirmation: Price reclaims the CISD level (blue line)
C2 label appears at the swept low
T-Spot (green box) shows optimal entry zone between HTF open and previous HTF EQ
Standard Deviation levels provide targets (-1, -2, -2.5, -4, -4.5 from CISD swing)
Stop Loss: Above C2 label level (swept low)
Invalidation: If stop hit, label changes to XC2 in red
For Short Positions (C2 Sell):
Wait for HTF candle to sweep previous HTF high (price goes above previous HTF high)
HTF candle closes back below the swept high (rejection)
CISD confirmation: Price breaks below the CISD level (blue line)
C2 label appears at the swept high
T-Spot (red box) shows optimal entry zone between HTF open and previous HTF EQ
Standard Deviation levels provide targets (-1, -2, -2.5, -4, -4.5 from CISD swing)
Stop Loss: Below C2 label level (swept high)
Invalidation: If stop hit, label changes to XC2 in red
Advanced Techniques
Using Bias Filter:
Auto: Allows both long and short setups
Bullish: Only shows long setups (filters out shorts)
Bearish: Only shows short setups (filters out longs)
Combining with Sessions:
Trade C2 setups that occur during high-volume sessions (London/NY AM)
Use session highs/lows as additional confluence
Avoid setups during low-volume periods (late NY PM/early Asia)
FVG Confluence:
Look for C2 setups that align with unfilled FVGs
Target FVGs as potential reversal zones
Use mitigated FVGs as trailing stop areas
MSS Confirmation:
Stronger setups occur after MSS in the C2 direction
Wait for bullish MSS before taking C2 long setups
Wait for bearish MSS before taking C2 short setups
SMT Divergence:
Use SMT divergences as additional confirmation
If DXY shows divergence at your C2 level = higher probability setup
Helps filter false setups and identify institutional manipulation
Risk Management
Maximum 2 HTF periods: C2 setups invalidate if stop not hit within 2 HTF candles
C4 Secondary Setup: If C3 EQ is favorable, you may get a C4 continuation setup
Std Dev Targets: Scale out at -1, -2, -2.5 levels; let runner go to -4/-4.5
Monitor CRT Levels: Previous HTF high/low often act as magnets for price

Focus on London and NY AM sessions for volume
Trade C2 setups aligned with session bias
Use -1 and -2 Std Dev levels as initial targets
Monitor SMT divergences for confirmation
For Swing Traders (15m, 60m, Daily charts)
Use standard HTF mode for accurate session mapping
Focus on C2 setups at major session opens (Daily, Weekly)
Target -4 and -4.5 Std Dev levels
Use Weekly/Monthly pivots for additional confluence
Allow 2 full HTF periods for setup to play out
For All Traders
Journal your C2 setups: Track success rate, best sessions, best Std Dev targets
Use bias filter strategically: If trending strongly, filter counter-trend setups
Combine with price action: C2 is a framework, not a mechanical system
Respect CRT levels: Previous HTF high/EQ/low are magnets
Don't force trades: Quality > quantity with C2 setups
Backtest on your instrument: Every market has nuances
